Find Your Closest Voting LocationConsult the handy map below to find the closest or most convenient polling place in Travis County. If you're registered to vote in Travis, you can vote at any location on Election Day.

Voting locations for Williamson County are here. A map of Hays County early voting locations is here.

Check Out Wait Times (in Travis County)Travis County has developed this handy way of checking to see which polling places are the busiest and how long your wait it likely to be there. Go here to see those wait times (green=less than 30 minutes, yellow=30 to 60 minutes, red=longer than 60 minutes).

Remember, Travis and Williamson County voters can vote at ANY polling place in their home county, so if the wait is long at your closest one, it might be worth finding one that isn't as busy.

Bring ID (if you have it)If you have a photo ID that is current or expired up to four years, bring that ID to the polls.

If you had trouble getting an ID or just don’t have one, you have some options:

You can bring your voter registration card and use that as your form of identification.

If you don’t have your registration card, you can bring any kind of official document – that’s anything that has your name and address on it—like a bank statement, utility bill, paycheck stub or a birth certificate. While you are at the voting location, all you’ll have to do is a sign a form that says you had trouble getting an ID.

If you have trouble at a polling place due to voter ID, the American Civil Liberties Union has set up a voter protection hotline with information and election lawyers available at 877-523-2792.

Record levels of early voting over the first week have put Travis County on pace to have more than 60 percent turnout this election season. Sunday’s voting brought the total number of ballots cast to 220,001.

This summer, a court ordered the state to change the law and then spend $2.5 million educating voters about those changes. But, voting rights groups say that last part hasn’t gone so well, and some experts say the language used to communicate those changes could be part of the problem.

Members of the public have weighed in on Mayor Steve Adler’s $720 million transportation bond proposal, and Council members have taken the first two of three votes needed to officially put the bond on a November ballot.
